«My English is not on that level that I want it to be, but I work on it every day. So I am sure to improve my language skills until 2015. And I'm confident of correcting all the mistakes in that year.» S.L.

Lead structured meetings and discuss the points on prepared list, no simple talkings.

Sum up important points and decisions of a Meeting on only one page. You have to write it down because a week later everyone has forgotten what was told about and decided in the meeting before. One page is perfect and you have an overview, but you have to avoid reports resulting in 20 or more pages because nobody will ever have time to read such a «book». Time is money.

Contact and invite all relevant people to meetings to reach an acceptance of the project and get more inputs.

Talk about mistakes to correct them.

Do not solve problems, solve the causes and reasons of them.

Operate fair and between people, set positions in the background.

If something in this list is not true at the moment, we can clarify this in the beginning and so create a base for a good and successful teamwork.
